Getting to Billy Bishop Airport: what to know before your ride

Billy Bishop is on the Toronto Islands. Here is how drop-offs and pickups work, and how to time your trip.

Billy Bishop Toronto City Airport (YTZ) is small, close to downtown and quick to get through. It is also on an island, which surprises some first-time travellers.

How you reach the terminal

Cars stop on the mainland at the foot of Bathurst Street. From there you walk through the pedestrian tunnel or take the short ferry across to the terminal. Your driver drops you as close to the entrance as allowed, and you take it from there with your bags.

Timing your departure

YTZ moves faster than Pearson, but downtown traffic does not. When you book, give yourself enough time for the drive into the city plus the walk through the tunnel. Our departures guide has tips that apply to both airports.
